Echo In the Canyon75
Jun 4, 2019
If you don’t expect it to be something it isn’t, it’s hard to see how partisans of pop music could fail to enjoy Echo in the Canyon. For rock ’n’ rollers of all ages, it’s mandatory viewing.

A Dog's Journey50
May 15, 2019
A big, juicy bone for canine-focused humans, but much less of a treat for others.
Apr 25, 2019
Ramen Shop75
Apr 25, 2019
The overall mood is out-and-out misty-eyed, a feeling emphasized by the movie’s piano score. Ramen Shop has some flaws — the movie jumps jarringly back and forth in time — but voluptuous closeups of delightful dishes like chilli crab make up for a lot.

Hotel Mumbai50
Mar 27, 2019
Too much of what we see feels contrived and ham-handed.
Mar 19, 2019
Transit75
Mar 19, 2019
Transit has a hint of science fiction, and more than a hint of Kafka. And despite the story’s link to World War II, it’s clear that Petzold wants it to resonate with today’s immigration problems.

Ash Is Purest White75
Mar 14, 2019
An exceptionally fine movie that plays out on a large and leisurely scale.
Mar 14, 2019
The Highwaymen50
Mar 14, 2019
Costner’s performance is mostly monotone, but Harrelson has some nice moments portraying Gault as surprisingly reflective.
Mar 6, 2019
Woman at War75
Mar 6, 2019
The movie’s sympathies are with Halla and against the climate-change deniers, but it also sees something slightly ridiculous in her David-and-Goliath actions. What sets the film apart is how it balances both this sense of irony and an abrupt plunge into serious personal matters stemming from a forgotten decision Halla made years ago.
Jan 30, 2019
Tito and the Birds75
Jan 30, 2019
An appealing Brazilian animated feature, and it’s conveyed in a handsome, expressive style that’s pleasing to watch.
Jan 16, 2019
Adult Life Skills50
Jan 16, 2019
A relentlessly quirky British comedy-drama that demonstrates why more is not always more.
